Personally, I believe that pollen.com should have placed today at a 14 instead of an 11. When the amount of pollen impacts your visibility, it’s bad. I’m scared to roll down my truck windows for the next few days.
Thank you Lord, in advance, for the rain tomorrow.
So, the night before the Democratic Convention started, tornadoes hit Denver.
Now there’s a chance that Hurricane Gustav could hit New Orleans the night before the Republican Convention starts.
Is God casting His vote?
This might be a good year to vote Libertarian.
A few months ago, meteorologist David Neal disappeared from the Channel 6 weather team. There’s been a lot of speculation about why he suddenly disappeared. Well, last night, co-worker Kevin found a story online and wrote about it.
David filed a lawsuit against Channel 6 yesterday. What a sad affair.
Thank you, Alabama Power, for getting our electricity turned back on at 4am. That’s 2 hours ahead of what you’d told us earlier.
However… Next time, you don’t have to have your automated service call at 6am to tell us that electric service was restored.
So I went to help my brother move a piano today. That’s a story in and of itself, but while I was there, the bad weather kicked in. We had golf ball sized hail, and some of the worst wind gusts I’ve seen since we rode out a tropical storm in Gulf Shores. The same storm passed over our house, and snapped a tree in our neighbor’s house in 2, ripping out power lines on our street.
Pictures to follow soon, I hope.
I’ve uploaded pictures from the Great Alabama Blizzard of ’08.
My favorite pictures? The ones with the weather station covered in snow. The entire time, the weather station showed zero precipitation.
Q: How do you know when there’s a chance of snow in Alabama?
A: The #1 forum for Alabama weather discussion – TalkWeather.com – is shut down due to massive amounts of Internet traffic.
Personally? I’ll believe it when I see it. But that doesn’t mean that I’m not hoping like a giddy 6 year old…
We weren’t supposed to get any sleet/snow/ice today. Just rain. However, from the Weather Station… Note the Current Weather line on top:
Now if it would only get a little colder, and stay cold, until the storm comes in Friday night… C’mon Blizzard of ’08!
Update:
It’s going to be a beautiful weekend.
